Got this on sale for 1/2 off, def. overpriced if paying over 50. Great to be able to make your own fizzy water, and drinks using fruits, juices, ect. Even their regular syrups have that "diet" taste due to the sweeteners they use. This is not gonna satisfy those used to drinking the name brand regular sodas. If your buying mainly for the ability to have seltzer water on demand, with the benefit of adding your favorite flavorings to your fizzy water...go for it...you;ll be happy

Love this! As a nutrition and health junkie, I bought this item to make my own sparkling water and fruit soda without all the sodium and chemicals. Perfect sub to soda by adding just a little fresh juice. Couldn't be happier. :)

I would recommend this to a friend!

Great first time product

I purchased this for my son, who is very health conscience at his young age. He likes to make his own soda, with carbonated water, fresh lemons, limes, or oranges, and stevia. This purchase made the process more convenient for him than having to constantly purchase seltzer water, and more fun to do!

I was skeptical at first but I'm glad I purchased this product. I didn't particularly care for the flavored syrups they sell for it but I have come up with my own concoctions. I use reverse osmosis water and flavor it with concentrated juices for a more healthier drink. It's low cost and an economical way to design your own healthy soda.

Love It!

Bought SodaStream to try and be a little more healthy with what I drink. Making soda with Stur all natural water enhancers and its great. I thought it would be more difficult to quit drinking store bought soda but I'm done :).

I would recommend this to a friend!

I did not think that the flavors would necessarily be as good as retail sodas, but they are just as good as off-brand sodas. I am using it more to make carbonated water to which I add lemon when I want something more exciting than plain water.

it works very good

I got this product for $50. A bargain compared to normal $80 sale price and $100 full price. If you are a sodaholic, dislike plain tap water, and/or hate hauling liters of soda every shopping trip then this a good buy. I recommend the diet raspberry, diet orange, and ocean spray (less fizz).Pro- Comes with sample set. Easy to assemble.Con - Doesn't taste like the brands you love.

I would recommend this to a friend!

cool product for the soda lover

The wide selection of syrup/soda flavors is great. The concept is great and the results can vary depending on how much practice you have with the unit. Sometimes the carbonation varies depending on how long you hold down the button to carbonate the water. That can lead to under carbonation at times. Also, it can be difficult to know how much syrup to put into each bottle as there are different size bottles available and the markings on the inside of the syrup cap can be very difficult to see. This has led on more than one occasion to very sweet or not-sweet-enough soda. Practice and trial and error help, but I do think that there is a learning curve.
